Abstract—The role played by email communication in our lives nowadays has been such a tremendous one especially when it comes to fast exchange of information. Nevertheless, this convenience is marred by the omnipresent threat of email spam that not only disrupts channels of communication but also present serious security and privacy concerns. Traditional models of spam detection which are based on rules or heuristics tend to fail because they do not adapt quickly enough to the new techniques employed by spammers. In response to these challenges, this paper proposes an inventive solution to the problem—integration of blockchain technology into the process of detecting email spams.Email spam is often defined as an unwanted and usually malicious form of correspondence, thus it has continued being a notable cyber security worry. The conventional mechanisms for discovering them are prone to false positives and negatives at times. Additionally, such systems have centralized data which can be interfered with and accessed without permission. Weighing up the limitations inherent in existing methods, this research examines how blockchain may change email spam detection.
